GoogleFX Mobile: Google user interface on top of Java ME tech

Here's an article from PC World about how Google can get their mobile technology to run on any phone. Well, run it on Java ME technology, naturally. :-) Duh. Google UI on Java ME would be a cool match-up. As the article says, we can then "beat up on Microsoft". Microsoft? I think the article writer has that mixed up. Anyway, they could call it GoogleFX Mobile. As long as they use Java ME, they can call it anything they'd like. ;-)

See:

Java ME would allow Google Mobile wide reach

Here's a quote: 

 ...it would be a good idea 
 for Google to partner with 
 Sun, which last year bought 
 SavaJe, a struggling mobile 
 Java operating system 
 developer. "If they're 
 smart, they'd go to Sun and 
 say, 'look, we both want to 
 beat up on Microsoft,'" 
 Delaney said. Google could 
 build a user interface on 
 top of the SavaJe OS and 
 offer an open-development 
 environment to developers, 
 he said.

 "Java would allow Google 
 applications to run on a wide 
 variety of devices," Hazelton 
 agreed. "It could be a way 
 to reach scale."
